辯論堪比車禍現場！拜登承認：我不是年輕人了

當地時間27日晚，美國2024年總統選舉首場候選人電視辯論在佐治亞州亞特蘭大市舉行。現任總統拜登和前任總統特朗普時隔近4年再次正面激辯、相互炮轟。

US President Joe Biden and former president Donald Trump shared the stage on Thursday night in the first debate of the 2024 election season.

整場辯論持續了約90分鐘，兩人圍繞美國經濟、移民、墮胎，以及俄烏衝突、巴以局勢等問題展開辯論，並開啟“口水仗”，言辭激烈、情緒激動，甚至進行人身攻擊。

It was a rematch for Biden and Trump, who faced each other twice in 2020. The presumptive Democratic and Republican party nominees debated for slightly more than 90 minutes in a studio at CNN's headquarters in Atlanta for the first of their two debates.

兩位候選人在開場時沒有握手。在回答問題環節，他們互相攻擊，一再稱對方為“騙子”，談到巴以衝突時，特朗普還稱拜登為“壞巴勒斯坦人”。

而拜登的聲音明顯嘶啞，且大部分時間盯著前方，有時難以表達完整的想法。

The candidates didn't shake hands when they were introduced. Throughout their answers to moderators and responses to each other's comments, they attacked one another, with each repeatedly calling the other a "liar'' and Trump at one point calling Biden a "bad Palestinian" when the Israel-Hamas war came up.

While Biden spoke, his voice was clearly hoarse. Biden mostly just stared ahead and listened as Trump spoke and at times had trouble delivering complete thoughts. He had some stumbles early, misstating how many jobs were created on his watch and saying, incongruously, that he "finally beat Medicare''.

在回答移民問題時，特朗普還嘲諷拜登：“我真的不知道他那句話的結尾說了什麼，而且我認為他自己都不知道在說什麼。”

At one point after a question on immigration, Trump said about Biden's answers, "I really don't know what he said at the end of that sentence, and I don't think he knows what he said either."

美媒還注意到，在持續了約一個半小時的辯論中，拜登多次出現口誤、卡頓，聲音含混。特朗普發言時長超過拜登，但屢次答非所問，陳述中還有大量失實資訊。

美國社交媒體上很多人抱怨稱，這場辯論簡直是“災難”“車禍現場”，是在“浪費時間”。

外媒報道的的“畫風”都是這樣的：

To Serve His Country, President Biden Should Leave the Race

為了服務國家，總統拜登應該退出競選

拜登回應：我不是年輕人了

美國Axios新聞網當地時間28日稱，拜登在週五一場“慷慨激昂”的競選演講中，承認辯論技巧已經退步，自己已不再是一個年輕人”，但同時，他也表明有信心勝任工作。

President Biden delivered an impassioned campaign speech on Friday after his widely criticized debate performance, acknowledging his debate skills have waned and he's "not a young man."

此前，美國“政治新聞網”(Politico)稱，在特朗普與拜登辯論結束後，民主黨人對拜登此次辯論中“搖搖欲墜的表現感到恐慌”，一些人開始主動討論此前“說不出口”的一件事，即換掉他們的候選人。
